Randy Weber, a U.S. Congressman representing Texas’ 14th district, has been an active presence on social media, sharing his insights on recent legislative efforts and political viewpoints. Weber, who succeeded Ron Paul in 2013 and previously served in the Texas House of Representatives, frequently engages with topics concerning energy policy and national security.

On April 8, 2025, Weber tweeted a brief message highlighting his stance on coal, stating, "Clean, beautiful coal!" This post could be seen as an endorsement of fossil fuels, amidst ongoing discussions about energy sources.

The following day, on April 9, 2025, he responded to another tweet with affirmative solidarity, saying, "Agreed, Mr. Whip!". The context of this tweet is not provided, but it suggests agreement with another political figure or legislative position.

In another tweet on the same day, April 9, Weber announced introducing the "Protecting America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve from China Act." He expressed strong opposition to the U.S. oil reserves being accessed by China. His words were clear: "Not ONE DROP of our emergency oil should end up in the hands of Communist China. During Joe Biden’s 4 years, he drained our reserves & sold us out. We're making sure it NEVER happens again."

Randy Weber continues to serve in the U.S. Congress, representing Texas’s 14th district since 2013. A Pearland, Texas native, Weber was born in 1953 and holds a degree from the University of Houston–Clear Lake.
